29  “Behold, God does all these things,

twice, ^athree times, with a man,

30  to bring back his soul from the pit,

that he may be lighted with ^bthe light of life.

9  “Because of the multitude of ^coppressions people ^dcry out;

they call for help because of the arm of ^ethe mighty.¹

14  “Hear this, O Job;

stop and ^econsider the wondrous works of God.

2  “I know that you can ^hdo all things,

and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.

3  ⁱ‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’

Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,

things ^jtoo wonderful for me, which I did not know.

6  therefore I despise myself,

and repent in^{1 l}dust and ashes.”
